The complainant submitted a request to the Greater London Authority (GLA) for copies of all emails sent to, from or cc’ed to a specific private email address. The complainant believed that the email address belonged to the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson. The GLA refused to confirm or deny whether it held information falling within the scope of the request on the basis of section 40(5) of FOIA. The Commissioner has concluded that the GLA is entitled to rely on this exemption as a basis to refuse to confirm or deny whether it holds information falling within the scope of the request.
FOI 40: Not upheld
